Dear Diary,Last night, my
Srikandi STF friends and I got stuck at our usual joint at Jalan 223, PJ after our weekly
gossip session futsal training for the rain poured as if it was the end of the world. As the clock struck 1
am, we decided to hit the rain to make it back to our cars. S
ome people still have to go to work tomorrow, Ninie. So said one of my girls. Yelah, yelah.
I was drenched,
my car seat was soaking wet and
hitting hot shower when I reached home
felt next to best after
Esalen massage.
Post-shower, I got too refreshed I couldn't sleep.
I watched
Desperate Housewives Season 5 Episode 1 and 2 that I downloaded last week and I was still wide awake. Blame the shocking (
WARNING: DHwives spoiler) Gabby that got fat, Carlos that turned blind, Susan that has a toyboy and Lynette's twins that are big enough to be writing sex poems to his own mom.
And so at 4in the morning
I checked my blog's sitemeter,
wondering who are all this
people?
When clicked at the link where the number is at,
I wondered even further.
I am deeply touched.
My blog has been viewed more than 5,600 this week
and it's only Wednesday.
I got itchy.
I was curious to know who checks my blog 4 in the morning.
Voila!
So I made my own blog's summary.
These are the people that contributed to heavy traffic to my blog,
if you fall into any of these, may I just thank you.
I honestly have no idea of what I'm doing here.
After midnight;
Malaysian students in UK
[perhaps my juniors (and seniors) that hated me more than anything back in STF, he he..
Wishing miraculously I'd break a leg or missing a veterbra one magical day just so that I'd stop being so gedik ya ampun]Office hour entrance;
Young execs baru masuk office and just got their coffee fixed
[most of them that check on me actually hate me for I don't have to wake up that early in the morning to catch a train, rather than doing yoga by the poolside every morning. Just a little inside info, I still do wake up at 7 every morning. But yoga by the poolside, err.. not every morning though. Trust me, yoga can equate pain when done everyday and not getting paid for it or when you can't pay someone to force you to do 127 sun salutations daily)But it doesn't stop me from wondering,
who reads this nonsense Diaries all the way from
New York (it couldn't be SJP, she doesn't live in Bronx. SATC was all about Manhattan. Although SJP might actually live in LA),
New Zealand (I would die happy if Lance Schuler or John Scott the Kiwi yoga masters actually know I exist),
Toronto (is this the ex-boyfriend I am thinking?),
Barcelona (could this be my beloved ex-housemate I am missing?) and I can't think of any
Slovakian I know.
For whatever the reason and for your precious time,
I thank you.

I also have concluded that my style of
writing blogging
can be very much influenced by the blogs I frequently read.
1. I love the
Kinky Blue Fairy.
And love is an understatement.
She is so cute and oh so painfully funny.
And when you thought God is fair.
Joyce seems to have it all.
But she might not be as flexible after all. He hee..
On days I browse
Kinky Blue Fairy's full page entries,
my next entry will deem 'I-try-to-be-Joyce-funny-but-I-can-never-be'.
'I is can never be Joyce.'
I will also feel like splinting my eyes like this -_- but then no one does it like Joyce.
From friends working at
BAT, Joyce actually does look like -_- when she squints her eyes!
2. I also think my ex-classmate from STF,
Marliza Yanti is one of the most talented writer I ever came across. Not to mention she has the most meticulous and immaculately neat handwriting I have ever seen! I love mine too :P but no one
writes like
Marliza.
Maka setiap kali baca blog Marliza lama-lama, penulisan saya akan jadi stail
EH! begini. Walaupun BM saya sudah tidak sebaik dulu (waktu Form 5 di STF dulu, Marliza dan saya sama pasukan mewakili negeri untuk
Forum Remaja Kebangsaan tau, jangan main-main!), tapi Marliza harus memberi kredit untuk percubaan saya cuba menulis seperti Marliza! Walaupun Marliza pasti ketawa, Ninie punya entry BM entah apa-apa. Muat naik pun tak tahu. Hu huu..
3. Kebelakangan ni
(once you've started writing in Malay,
it's oh so hard to switch to Manglish back!
Or maybe it just happens to this illiterate me..
Or let me just try again)3. Lately, I found myself clicking and checking
Hanis Zalikha's blog everyday.
Not because she's pretty, not because she was a
Malaysian Dreamgirl finalist..
Ok lah, I lied. This is another Malaysian creature that seems to have it all,
pretty, tall (make-up might transform you to be a prettier you but when you are stuck being 5 feet..), SUPER FUNNY I tell you, blessed with a sporting mom and incredibly happy home and unbelievably down-to-earth!
I thought models are all (maaf ye, terpaksa generalize sebab MOST models I know memang begini) dumb and full of themselves. Yang Melayu tak geti cakap English, yang bukan Melayu pun tak konfiden cakap English, cuma yang celup je boleh cakap English, itupun dengan accent. Tapi
Hanis lain, maybe that's why I love her. Serious love, bukan hate. Walaupun dia hampir ada segala yang saya bukan. Kalau dia fleksibel jugak dan sama cup size, baru lah tak love, he hee..
Maka bila terkena virus blog Hanis, tulisan macam perenggan kat atas lah jadinya. Bahasa Melayu yang comel (walaupun English Hanis juga sangat power!) dan tulisan yang ikhlas tapi laser tapi sebab dapat rasa ketulusan hati dia, maka jadik comel.
* * * * * * *
We should feel lucky that they share their beautiful lives and insights online.
I salute them for not only writing about people or food or things they hate,
for still being able to see everything beautifully and to write beautiful everything
and I thank them for the inspiration they never know.
Or maybe now they do.
:P
And I do know something else too.
AKULAH YANG TAK ORIGINAL, ha hah haa!
Kesian korang yang baca blog aku..
